While we're not sure how legit jOBS is going to be as far as facts go, we're willing to push that aside to see how Ashton Kutcher does in the role — and even more so if he's THIS dedicated!!

Apparently the diet he was on DESTROYED him, and sent him to the hospital!! Cray!!

Here's what he said at Sundance:

"First of all, the fruitarian diet can lead to like severe issues. I went to the hospital like two days before we started shooting the movie. I was doubled over in pain.

"My pancreas levels were like completely out of whack. It was really terrifying… considering everything."

Weird!

We wonder if it was because of a certain fruit or nut that he was eating. If you don't know, fruitarian diets consist of fruits, nuts, and seeds. Absent is everything else: animal products, vegetables, grains, etc.

Also, we wanna know if that led him to change the diet, or stop it altogether!!

Either way, we're still (reluctantly) excited to see the flick, which focuses on the life of Steve Jobs from 1971 to 2000, because Steve Wozniak (the co-founder of Apple with Jobs) made a comment just a few days ago that the film's depiction of their relationship as "totally wrong". We'd like to see how wrong it is, LOLz!

This isn't the first time the 39-year-old's figure has caused controversy. As we reported in January, the American Pie stunner was accused of using Photoshop to make her already narrow waist even smaller.

Reid has admitted to getting plastic surgery in the past to make changes to her abdominal area and breasts -- but the actress asserts that she naturally has a lean shape.
